Transfer funds between accounts

You can transfer funds between checking, savings, and money market accounts in your chart of accounts, but you cannot transfer funds between A/P and A/R accounts. For example, you might need to transfer funds from a savings account to a checking account to cover your weekly payroll, or you might want to transfer funds from your checking account to your petty cash account.

To do this task

Go to the Banking menu and click Transfer
Funds.

In the Transfer Funds window, select the
account from which you want to transfer the funds.

Select the account to which you want to transfer the funds.

Enter the amount that you want to transfer.

Save the transaction.

Note: If you choose to get funds into your petty cash account using the QuickBooks transfer feature, you must remember to move or withdraw the real funds, too. For example, if you transfer $100 from your checking account to your petty cash account, you need to either cash a check for $100 or withdraw $100 using your ATM card.
